Now, if only we had a way to mod a Crossbow to shoot babies.

Couldn't we mod crossbow to use corpses as ammo? Or mod a new ranged that use a new type of ammo made of babies corpses?

Dear god my first modding project is going to be The CORPSE CANNON!

Why not give Cats an ammo tag?  THAT should make their overpopulation useful "Urist McMarksdwarf is out of ammo" "Urist McMarksdwarf fired Cat at Goblin Target".

Why would you use a crossbow? Just throw the cat and it would tear out the Goblins Liver and become stuck in the wound

Throwing is for peasants, now crossbows are for the more sophisticated Dwarf.

Doesn't ammo always get destroyed if it hits its target? That might negate the effectiveness of babies as ammo. Especially if you give your marksdwarves training targets.

You could mod in a training baby ammo. It would require bones and leather to make.

Um, I don't know what version of the Game you're playing, but if the ammo hits the target, it doesn't get destroyed.

Ah. I was reading an old thread about adamantine farming using doors, pits, and goblins to preserve and separate adamantine bolts into stacks of 1 for melting, and in that thread, people were noting that ammo that hits a training target was always destroyed, which is why goblins + doors was necessary.

Must have changed in the interim, if it's no longer destroyed when it hits a target. Does it teleport back into their quivers during training? I don't see non-broken bolts lying on the floor around the training targets.

By the way.. the name of this thread sounds like a title for one of these battle games such as MyBrute an Mini Troopers.

Ammo which hits a training target is always destroyed.  This has not changed.

Ammo which hits a live target and sticks in is not destroyed.  It's destroyed if it doesn't get stuck in, or if it misses and doesn't fall a Z-level.

O_o A serious thread about using babies as ammunition. It can not be unseen
